You've gotta check out this video about Frist, Goodlatte, and the Internet gambling ban: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6U8WjAmhgsU
I encourage EVERYONE to click on the above link and to see this. I just wish I could send a copy of that to the Southern Baptist Convention. I'd really like to play that video at a Bill Frist pep rally!
Elvis has left the building, but we're left with no internet gaming The video is a must see for all on this site.
How much? Did you or anyone donate to the 40% of dems that voted for the ban? Did that guy on the film do anything to further his cause? Did he organize a pac? Or did he do like most did. Sat back an waited for the process to complete after years and years of congressional study. The root of the word idiot, not as it is used today, was people not using themselves to prompt public action. Green Day has written a song in protest to president Bush called American Idiot. The candy is gone, who is to blame? Is it the American Idiot? B
I don't appreciate your smart-ass response to J Todd. He has been on the frontlines of this battle from day one, and he was the first casualty among casino webmasters. His very successful sites were based in Washington State, and he was forced to sell them when that state passed laws targeting Internet gambling. Like others here lately, I'm getting really tired of your constant bitching. If you don't like the tone of the posts here lately, take a fucking hike.
Politics 101 What part of "Republicans attached the gaming ban to an unrelated Port Security bill" don't you understand? Of course Democrats voted for it, since it was a tiny addition to a huge bill granting *necessary* funding to securing the thousands & thousands of uninspected crates that come through our sea ports annually, any one of which could contain terrorist bombs or chemicals that could take out an entire US city. THAT'S why the Republicans responsible for including it on this particular bill -- and, more importantly, for using their majority status to squash any debate or even a vote on whether or not it SHOULD be included there -- are the subject of the incredible amount of criticism you're hearing from the gambling community right now. Get it? Duh. Let me know if you need me to debunk any more false accusations you're still holding on to concerning this issue. I'm here to help. -hd.
One of those crates might have a deck of playing cards or a porno dvd too. We've got to stop those evil things as well or the world will come to an end. :joker: I can't wait 'til we have to start carrying our 'papers' with us like effin old school East Germany.
Dave Do you really think this started at the Port Security Bill? Here, go thru the Roll Call via the link on this page. Like I said, even Nancy Pelosi voted for the ban. I dont know if in acting school they offered Poli Sci classes, maybe you should head over to UCLA and take some. The women are hotter there than Playboy anyway. http://wizardofodds.com/general/hr4411.html

Reachy I say the oh-so-eighties Flock of Seagulls 'do! Very British boy band! But maybe you should put up a poll, and have all the members here decide! Elyssez
I agree 101% Flock O Seagulls is a hot look. Maybe Reach can trade his wife and kids in for a Boy George and a George Michaels for one big happy family! Then instead of touring ancient ruins of UK or buggy trips to Portugal they can tour public restrooms!
I beg your pardon If I were to hang around with the 2 Georges I'll be more likely to go all narcoleptic when driving through central London. Apparently sudden deep sleep is a side-effect of the latest drug to hit the clubs (true story but not based on personal experience; I just know things). So look out for co-workers dropping off at their workstations; they say they've been playing BJ all night but infact they've been 'avin' it large at Studio 54! Cheers Disco "Reachy" Stu Ps. Barney, I don't quite know how to ask you this but, are you, you know, a bit lavender? Do you know Tom Cruise?
So how do you know about this new drug? Is it because zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
